Oh To Be Independantly Wealthy
The day started out going to the Glen Ivy Spa! There were over 1,000 people there that day we were told. My Mom made the statement, it's like Wild Rivers for adults. You really get to just lounge around while people are there to make your day wonderful. You can attend Club Mud and just pound the mud onto your body. As you just soak in the sun, the mud dries and then exfoliates the skin leaving you with smooth silky skin. This is also an excuse for adults to play in the mud and not be frowned upon! :) There are about 6 different hot tub locations. One has mineral water, one has a saline solution, one is slightly colder than the rest and the rest are just hot. We also went under the sea to Ariel's grotto...:) We stood in an algae looking tomb and were slathered with Eucalyptus gunk. It was so slimy and felt so good. This too exfoliated our skin. Man so much exfoliation, I am not sure I even really know what that means. All in all it was pretty sweet to get pampered for the day and spend time with some people I really love. But the day didn't end there. We have a Spirit of Excellence Gala at Cal Baptist that raises money for student scholarships. The big whigs come and spend thousands of dollars in the austions to donate money to the school. I am not sure how much it costs exactly, but I think it could be in the range of $1,000 a table. The chefs at school are given a chance to get creative with their food creations and the school does an amazing job of hosting hundreds of great people. I had an amazing friend call me up and ask if I would like to be a guest and one of his friends tables. Oh' the places you will go. Sarah went as my date and once again we schmoozed. We had a blast exchangin stories and networking for Sarah's brother who may end up doing an internship with the gentleman we ate with! God is so good. What a serious blessing to be able to give thousands of dollars so that students can go to school. What would you do with that kind of money?!
Yup that is definitely a chocolate boot! Thanks CBU!!!

i'm glad that you and sarah attended that dinner so others can see how wonderful, witty and full of God's love you guys are. what excellent representatives of the caliber of folk that CBU cranks out.
if we had big money, we'd donate bucks and eat chocolate boots so kids could go to CBU... instead, God's letting us love on the freshly minted grads. each part doing their part!
